The Interim Administrator of the Presidential Amnesty Programme (PAP), Col. Milland Dixon Dikio (rtd), has thrown his weight behind the war against

Dikio who spoke at the weekend in Port Harcourt, Rivers State during the 50th-anniversary dinner and award night of the Port Harcourt Polo Club, said Wike’s effort should be complemented by all stakeholders in the region.

He said: “I commend the Rivers State Governor, Wike, for taking on the issue of illegal oil refineries also known as kpofire head-on. But a lot of work still needs to be done. Kpofire is not the only pollutant and so individually and collectively what are we doing, especially corporate organizations to reduce unwanted emissions into our environment”?

“I will say that instead of quarrelling about the percentage, we should be talking about what to do with the percentage we got, build on it and we can have another discussion after that”, Dikio said. He said: “We’re looking for partnerships with businesses that can train these ex-agitators and give them the required skills for employment in their businesses.

Blocking arms supply from Niger Republic will tackle Zamfara insecurity – Rep“If we can get the Niger Republic to block all access to all entry points, then what the bandits have will definitely depreciate, and naturally, the fight will cease.” Is it the duty of Niger Republic to block all access or for Buhari and the North to block northern borders.

This should be priority number one for any government in Nigeria. 1. this is almost impossible. It's like saying if we can get the police to be on every road in the country then we can curb crime.
